Saint Benedict Medal & Associated
Prayer
The Front Of the Jubilee Saint Benedict
Medal
The Saint Benedict Medal is filled with
images, letters and words.
Pedestals stand on either side of
Benedict. The pedestal on his right holds a cup for wine and the
other a raven about to take flight. Both represent thwarted
attempts to kill Benedict. This is our reminder that Christ will
always come to the aid of those who call on Him.
In the area above the cup and raven the
Latin words “Crux s patris Benedicti” are inscribed. They
translate to”The Cross of our holy father Benedict” (CSPB).
Inscribed around the margin of the medal
we find the words, “Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur!”
which translates to “May we be strengthened by his presence in
the hour of our death!” Saint Benedict is considered the patron
saint of a happy death.
Below Saint Benedict are the letters SM
Casino MDCCLXXX, indicating the medal commemorates the 1400th
anniversary of Benedict’s death.
The Back Of the Jubilee Saint Benedict
Medal
The cross on the back of the medal carries
the initial letters of a Latin prayer. “Crux sacra sti mihi
lux! Nanquam draco sit mihi dux!” translates to “May the holy
cross be my light! May the dragon never be my guide!” This is a
constant prayer of exorcism, protecting us from the evil of
Satan. CSSMLNDSMD
In the spaces around the cross the letters
CSPB stand for, “Crux Sancti Patris benedicti", meaning, “The
cross of our holy father Benedict”.
Above the cross, the centuries-old
Benedictine motto reads simply “Pax”, “Peace”.
The letters outlining the rim of the
medal are the initial letters of a Latin prayer of exorcism:
VRSNSMV - SMQLIVB, standing for “Vade retro Santana! Nanquam
suade mihi vana! Sunt mala quae libas. Ipse venena
bibas!”meaning, “Begone Satan! Never tempt me with your
vanities! Evil are the things thous profferest, Drink thou thine
own poison” With these emphatic words in constant presence,
Satan cannot even approach.
Spiritual
Warfare - A Binding Prayer for the Conversion of Our Adult
Children
One of the most painful
trials parents face is when their children leave the faith,
which occurs more often than people are aware. What happens
is, our children venture into the darkness as a result
of demonic influence. Binding prayers can be used to
counteract this influence. The demons are wanting to claim
our children for their own, however, the Almighty Father
will not allow that to happen - The following is a general
binding prayer that can be used on yourself or anyone you
have authority over like your children.
The following prayer is
taken from world reknowned exorcist, Fr. Chad Ripperger's
book entitled
Deliverence Prayers For Use By The Laity.
English Binding Prayer
Spirit of N., I
bind you in the Name of Jesus, by the power of the Holy
Cross, by the power of ,the most Precious Blood of Our Lord
Jesus Christ and by the intercession of the Blessed Virgin
Mary, St. Michael the Archangel, the blessed Apostles, Peter
and Paul and all of the saints, and I command you to leave
N. (Name of person or object) and go to the foot of
the Holy Cross to receive your sentence, in the Name of the
Father, and of the Son and of the the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Latin Binding Prayer
Spiritus N., ego te ligo in
nomine Jesu, potestate Crucis sancti, potestate
pretiosissimi Sanguinis Domini nostri Jesu Christi, et per
intercessione beatissime Mariae Virginis, sancti Michaelis
archangeli, beatorum Apostolorum Petri et Pauli, et omnium
Sanctorum et tibi impero recedere N. (nomen personae aut
objecti) et ire ad pedem Crucis sancti sententiam tuam
recipere, in nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
Amen.
“N”
can be any particular vice or issue that you are praying
against. For example, if your child is cohabitating, you
might want to pray against the spirit of fornication –
fornicationis in Latin. A full list of names of spirits
can be found in Fr Chad Ripperger’s book.
"Satan is the main demon
of impurity. Underneath Satan there are 5
Generals that are demons directly underneath Satan and
they are the ones that execute his plans. The first demon
directly under him is Baal also a demon of impurity and
his main job is to get cultures to succumb to impurity,
primarily through Fornication. Once Fornication sets
in, the concept that the conjugal act (sex) is ordered
towards children is lost. Baal sets the groundwork. From that arises the
idea that sex is recreational and you can use it for
anyway to get pleasure. THE FREE LOVE MOVEMENT.Once the spirit of
Fornication sets in, then what happens is next 3 demons
show up - the first one is Asmodeus (homosexuality in
men), Leviathan (homosexuality in men but of the
masculine kind), then Lilith (more seductive form of
female homosexuality).Every single culture
is pushed in this direction historically and now ...
fornication .... to contraception ... to homosexuality
to AB@RTION (Baphomet DEMON OF CHILD SACRAFICE) Our country shot down
fornication laws and then delivered us into the hands of
Bahl!!! etc etc our country politically is now under the
HOLD of the top 5 demons in HELL under Satan and that is
why we are all in intense spiritual warfare (34).
"One
of the principle ways to combat spiritual warfare is you
have to know your faith. Unless you know your faith really
well you are going to end up in error."
St. Alphonsus Ligouri said
that there is a certain amount of mortal sins that God
preordains, but once that person reaches that certain point
in mortal sin, God is going to pull the plug on the grace
and the person is just not going to be able to combat the
diabolic. God sometimes allows the diabolic into their lives
sometimes to punish them This is not too common.
Usually it is because the person has made the decision that
they are not going to get their act together. I am not going
to change, therefore, I want this sin, I want this to
happen. Therefore God will allow the demon into their lives
to afflict them to show them what the true punishment is,
literally giving them what is the product of their sin.
What most
people do not realize is, the proper effect of every mortal
sin is possession. God controls the demons not us and then
even when we open up the door it is up to God to determine
whether He will allow the demon to step through the door or
not and whether it is going to be good for them. Very rarely
does He allow the demon into the person's life as a
punishment. Part of it is to clue the person in, this is
what you wanted, this is the effect of your sin."
The Devil's
4 Stage Plan of Attack on Us ~ Fr. Vincent Lampert
Fr. Vincent Lampert
describes the fourfold attack that Satan launches at us and
how the Blessed Virgin Mary provides unparalleled
intersession to defend us.
Deception: the devil lies, presents good as bad and bad
as good, true as false, false as true. All those lies look
to the future. Gratitude looks to the past. Love looks to
the present. Fear looks to the future: mediums, tarot cards.
No place for hope and trust but fear and wish to control
Division: isolate people from others, from God, from
themselves. The devil pushes for disunity (John 17),
comparisons, anger, greed, addictions, infidelity. The goal
is to unite our broken lives and then give them back to God.
A life of unity, integrity, and coherence
Diversion: the main goal of the devil is to take us away
from adoration of God. So he promotes idolatry. Absorbed in
a task, or being completely out of the task. relativism:
nothing really matters. no stable truth. Addictions.
Distractions: fear, anxiety, offenses from others, distorted
pleasures
Discouragement: stop trying. Mechacholy. I do not care
anymore. No meaning in life. We bought the lies of the
devil, we found our lives broken, we are not in the divine
will, thus life has no meaning: crossroads: Death or
Discipleship

the Mother of the Redeemer Retreat Center on January 17-19,
2020, on "The Need for Exorcists" in our world that is
seeing an increase in demonic activity as our culture
becomes less Christian. He explains the role of exorcists in
our modern Church and world, how the Church discerns between
natural and preternatural activity, how lay people are
involved in this battle and how they can protect themselves
and help others, how the Virgin Mary helps in this battle
and the joy we should have, knowing that Christ has already
conquered.
